Hi Zakia! I’ve never tried myself with sorghum flour but I’m almost sure it will work. Just make sure your flour is fresh and sometimes organic flour works even better. Let me know if you try it!

Gluten-Free Sourdough StarterHi Austin! I think you saw my reply on YouTube already but I will post my answer here as well in case it can help others. You can use buckwheat flour for sure! Although sometimes it can be a little harder to maintain. If you take good care of it and feed it regularly, it should be fine. You can also combine buckwheat with sorghum or millet flour, and that should work really well!﻿

Gluten-Free Sourdough StarterHi Lora! I’m so excited for you! Sorghum is a great choice! I’m just about to try a non-rice version myself here too. Pouring out the water when you’re first developing a new starter is fine. You can add a touch more water when you are feeding your starter with fresh flour and water. If it’s too dry to stir around adding a bit more water is ok. Mine tend to contain more liquid and so far it’s never been a problem. With time you will get good at feeling out your dry ingredients and liquid ratios. If a starter or bread dough is too dry, it’s ok to trust your instincts and add more water. When first working on a new starter pouring out the top liquid helps to build a stronger starter with a pleasant aroma. Hope this helps!

Gluten-Free Sourdough StarterWhether you’re creating a new starter from scratch or maintaining an existing starter a reg house/kitchen temperature is usually preferred. Not too hot though.

How to Make Grain-Free BreadHi Annette! This loaf is also gluten-free and well as grain-free. Just make sure that the ingredients you buy are certified gluten-free if you must avoid gluten. If you enjoy buckwheat then perhaps this loaf is one for you to try!

How to Make Grain-Free BreadHi Stephanie! I’m so happy that you tested the grain-free bread recipe! It’s a very unique loaf and it makes me smile knowing that you enjoyed it as much as I do! If you have a minute do you mind rating the recipe at the bottom of the recipe post? I would appreciate that very much! Also, let us know if you made it as is (other than increasing the size) or if you made modifications to the ingredients.

Basic Yeasted Dough Gluten-Free VeganHi Nat! Thank you so much for your message! It makes me very happy to share my love of allergen-friendly bread recipes with anyone who appreciates them as much as I do! As for adding some sourdough starter to the yeast free bread recipe—that’s a great question! I’m sure that if you replaced the 3/4 cup sorghum called for in the recipe with 1 cup of sorghum starter and tweaked the water amount to maybe a little less, it could work. Once you mix the bread ingredients, I recommend letting the dough rise for at least 2 hours (up to 5) before baking it. If you want you can follow the instructions to the Buckwheat Sourdough recipe (freshisreal.com/buckwheat-sourdough-loaf-gluten-free-vegan) but use the ingredients of the Yeast-Free Loaf. Let me know if you would like me to test it for you as I think it could work very well!

How to Make Grain-Free BreadHi Stephanie! Hope you had a great Christmas! The smaller Dutch oven I use for this recipe is about 5 litres. The base is 7 inches in diameter, the top part of the dish is 9 inches in diameter and it’s about 5 inches high. A larger Dutch oven will work great as well. Let me know if you do try the recipe.
